1 - Alta Via dei Parchi from Lago di Ponte to Monte Carpegna

Eight parks are crossed by Alta Via: two national parks: Tuscan-Emilian Apennines and Casentino Forests, Mount Falterona and Campigna; five regional parks: Upper Apennines of Modena, Cedra and Parma Valleys, Corno alle Scale, Suviana and Brasimone Lakes, Chalk Vein of Romagna and an interregional park: Sasso Simone and Simoncello.

The complete 500 km route is divided into 27 stages: for Emilia-Romagna's part, it almost entirely follows 00 path and GEA which cover the Apennine ridge between Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany regions. More specifically, the route coincides with GEA almost entirely in the Emilia-Romagna stretch from Cisa Pass to Mount Cavallo, with a small deviation on the ridge to then resume in Casentino Forests.

The route is clearly identifiable by hikers thanks to coordinated signage and is completed by a number of facilities for visitors. The ecotourism offer linked to the natural and cultural beauty of the parks is also proposed as an innovative holiday feature that goes well with visits to art cities located in the area being crossed.
